An Ohio restaurant, Melt Bar & Grilled, is offering anyone who gets a grilled cheese sandwich tattoo a 25% discount. The establishment specializes in putting a new spin on the old lunchtime favorite. The discount, like the shame of getting a grilled cheese tattoo, lasts a lifetime.

If there going to attempt to verify that the customer actually has the tattoo they claim to have, they are definitely going to be shocked at the, uh, "inventive" body parts people can come up with to have tattoed! 'Yeah, I got your grill cheese sandwich tattoo right HERE!"

The restaurant has hooked up for the promotion with a tattoo shop, which is offering its own discount on grilled cheese designs. John Forgus of Voodoo Monkey Tattoo says he's been getting creative, giving one person a tattoo of Popeye holding a grilled cheese sandwich instead of a spinach can.

Though I will admit that it is not a grilled cheese sandwich, I do have a friend who has (among other tattoos) a TV dinner tattooed on his forearm. It's right there in full color, complete with a serving of chicken, mashed potatoes, and, if I recall correctly, green peas. Strangely enough, it has religious significance.
